Understanding the Command Syntax
ExtremeWare XOS 11.3 Concepts Guide

Command Shortcuts
Components are typically named using the
create
command. When you enter a command to configure
a named component, you do not need to use the keyword of the component. For example, to create a
VLAN, enter a VLAN name:
create vlan engineering
After you have created the name for the VLAN, you can then eliminate the keyword
vlan
from all other
commands that require the name to be entered. For example, instead of entering the modular switch
command:
configure vlan engineering delete port 1:3,4:6
you could enter the following shortcut:
configure engineering delete port 1:3,4:6
Although it is helpful to have unique names for system components, this is not a requirement. If
ExtremeWare XOS encounters any ambiguity in the components within your command, it generates a
message requesting that you clarify the object you specified.
NOTE
If you use the same name across categories (for example, STPD and VLAN names), Extreme Networks recommends
that you specify the identifying keyword as well as the actual name. If you do not use the keyword, the system may
return an error message.
Names
All named components within a category of the switch configuration, such as VLAN, must have a
unique name. Names can be re-used across categories, however. Names must begin with an alphabetical
character and cannot contain any spaces. The maximum length for a name is 32 characters. Names may
contain alphanumeric characters and underscores (_) and cannot be keywords, such as vlan, stp, and so
on.
NOTE
If you use the same name across categories (for example, STPD and VLAN names), Extreme Networks recommends
that you specify the identifying keyword as well as the actual name. If you do not use the keyword, the system may
return an error message.
Symbols
You may see a variety of symbols shown as part of the command syntax. These symbols explain how to
enter the command, and you do not type them as part of the command itself.

command syntax symbols.
